Parents and Guardians of high school students. We are still working on finalizing student schedules. Those reflected in student or parent portal may not accurately reflect the schedule they will have starting the first day of school. Thank you for your understanding.
Attention Parents!! If your child has Diabetes, Seizures or Allergies requiring use of an EpiPen, I will need a new Action plan signed by the physician for the 2023-2024 school year. In order for a student to carry an inhaler on them, I will need an Asthma action plan for the 2023-2024 school year. If the student needs to carry the inhaler themselves, I will need an authorization for student to carry on self form signed by the physician.
If your student takes routine medications that need to be administered during school hours, I will need a new Medication authorization form for the 2023-2024 school year signed by the physician prior to me being able to administer the medication(s).
Lastly, I will not be able to administer any over the counter medications unless the medication is brought from home and I have a signed OTC form signed by parent/guardian. If your student has frequent headaches and you'd like to keep some in my office, feel free to bring an unopened bottle of pain reliever to the office or Back to school fair and I can provide you with the required permission form.
Feel free to contact me with any questions. I will have extra copies of all forms available at the Back to school fair on Saturday.
We hope you join us Monday, August 14th to drop off your school supplies, meet your teacher and see your classroom!

Statement from the Itasca Board for Trustees:
The Board of Trustees met today to take immediate action to suspend Superintendent Michael Stevens from his role as Superintendent of Schools. The Board took this action in response to the arrest on Thursday, June 1st of Mr. Stevens. We are working diligently to resolve this situation in accordance with our legal counsel.
The Board has appointed veteran Superintendent Keith Boles to serve as the Interim Superintendent starting tomorrow, June 6th. Mr. Boles previously served in the district in this capacity and is well known and respected by our community.
Last and more importantly, the Board is confident that based on all facts known to date, there are no connections between the allegations made against Mr. Stevens and students at Itasca ISD. Our students are safe and will continue to thrive and succeed with the dedicated attention and service brought by our outstanding parents and staff.
